Absolutely beautiful house and a must stay if you are in the Murphy area. Gorgeous views from deck and dinning room table. Very cute neighborhood and close to anything you may need. House has an amazing lay out for even multiple families. Kids loved the game room and we loved hanging out downstairs to unwind from a day of adventure. Worth checking it out. Host was responsive and tentative with any concerns and house was clean.

Great Mountain Stay

We had a wonderful family weekend getaway. Close enough to the casino and store for convenience, but still isolated to enjoy the stars and mountains! Rebecca was very easy to communicate with and we look forward to future visits! We would have given more than 5 stars!!!

Family Fun

We were there for a family wedding. Cabin is beautiful, very convenient, comfortable and view is amazing. Having a hot tub, game room and fire pit enhanced our stay. Being able to see all the deer even a fawn was wonderful. Can’t imagine a nicer cabin.

Fun & Cozy

The cabin was very cozy with great views. The beds were very comfortable. With temperatures outside in the teens every night we had the fireplace going each night. My son and his wife even used the hot tub outside a couple nights.Enjoyed the pool table and video game machine.

NC get together

Place was pretty much as advertised. Only reason I didn’t rate 5 stars was because the microwave didn’t work and the pool table should be positioned so 3 walls didn’t prevent cue sticks to be used. Also grill is getting a bit worn. All in all, we were satisfied with the rental, and our host was very easy to reach and responded quickly.

Birthday

The house was very nice and the perfect size for our birthday party for my granddaughter turning 20. The game room and the hot tub were what we needed to make the stay a very enjoyable time. Although the weather did not cooperate most of our stay, there was plenty to do from board games, pool table games and corn hole. Thank you so much Rebecca for keeping in touch and for letting us enjoy your beautiful home.
